Apple Blossom Cottage - Skye

Lovely photo taken today by our first guests of the season staying at the cottage. Beautiful view from the garden with the Cuillin Mountain range in the distance. Wishing them and all our future guests a great holiday.

Remember folks, drive on the left.

Hooray 😀

A few pictures of some derelict buildings. Plus the obligitory stop at Sligachan on the way home. Pretty much a monochrome day.

No Aurora last night, but another great view of the Milky Way. :D

Beautifully clear night, last night. Gazillions of stars, and the Milky way as clear as a bell. Slight orange Aurora and a few shooting stars as well. The photos do not show a fraction of what was visible. (The first 2 were taken on my mobile! )

Cosy night in here at Apple Blossom Cottage tonight!

A beautiful late autumn day out to Storr and a walk up to the Old Man of Storr. Always a great place to visit any time of year. Magical!

Places to visit tomorrow night😱

Happening tonight. :D

Take nothing but photo's, leave nothing but footprints.

Aurora, & shooting stars tonight. :D

Latest update on the refurbishment of the Co-op in Broadford. They've changed the plan so as to avoid complete closure during the works.
"Broadford Co-Op refurbishments have been rescheduled for October 29.
The Project Manager responsible for the refurbishment confirmed at a meeting yesterday (Thursday 23 August) that the overall completion date is estimated to be March 19.
... There will be a break in the works for around a fortnight in December over the Christmas and New Year period.
The full refurbishment of the shop is planned to start on January 7. The two-phase project will see the front of the shop adjacent to the petrol station closed and 3,000 square feet at the back of the shop open. When the first phase is complete then the available shopping area will be reversed which will allow a similar shopping area, at the front of the shop while the rear area is refurbished.
It is hoped that this will allow the Co-Op to remain open throughout the refurbishment. "
